This method analyzes the fault current of the VSC-HVDC system in the time domain. However, it is computationally complex and cannot directly reflect the relationship between parameters and the currentlimiting effect of the SI-FCL.In this paper,the relationship between the magnetic flux density and magnetic field energy of the SI-FCL is analyzed. The energy exchange between the DC capacitor and the SI-FCL in the DC short circuit fault process is analyzed. From the perspective of electromagnetic energy conversion, the criterion for determining the current-limiting ability of the SI-FCL in the transient process is given based on the parameters of the SI-FCL and VSC-HVDC system. On this basis, the characteristics of the DC side fault current and the capacitor voltage when the SI-FCL has current-limiting ability are examined.Based on the parameters of the SI-FCL and VSC-HVDC system, a method for calculating the fault current peak value and capacitor voltage drop time is given. Finally, the accuracy of the analysis of the SI-FCL in the VSC-HVDC system based on the electromagnetic energy conversion mechanism is demonstrated through a case study and simulation results of the VSC-HVDC system with different SI-FCLs.展开更多

We report herein a new architecture of iron nanoparticles for high-efficiency denitrification by selective reduction of nitrate (NO3-) to dinitrogen (N2). The iron nanoparticles are doped with nitrogen (FeN) and encapsulated within a thin layer of nitride-carbon (NC). The nanoparticles have high pyrrolic N content (17.4 at.%) and large specific surface area (2040 m2/g). Laboratory experiments demonstrated high N2selectivity (91%) and nitrate removal capacity (6004 mg N/g Fe) for treatment of nitrate-containing water. This iron-based nanomaterial overcomes shortcomings of conventional catalysts by eliminating the use of precious and toxic heavy metals (e.g., Pd, Pt, Cu, Ni) and minimizing the generation of undesirable byproducts (e.g., ammonia) from the reactions with nanoscale zero-valent iron (n ZVI). The multiple electron transfers process from NO3- to N2can be fine-tuned by adjusting the NC shell thickness. Superior electrocatalytic perfor- mance, low cost and minimal environmental impact of the iron-derived nanocatalyst offer promising prospects for water purification, waste treatment and environmental remediation.展开更多
